Targeted road widening works have commenced along Jalan Urat Mata in Kuching South City Council (MBKS) as part of efforts to improve traffic flow and alleviate congestion on the busy route. Kuching South Mayor Dato Wee Hong Seng announced that the project, which began on Aug 11, aims to widen approximately 600 meters of one lane on the right-hand side and 300 meters of one lane on the left-hand side of the road, with the completion expected by Jan 10, 2027.
